Caracteriza\c{c}\~ao de tempos de ida-e-volta na Internet

Round-trip times (RTTs) are an important metric for the operation of many applications in the Internet. For instance, they are taken into account when choosing servers or peers in streaming systems, and they impact the operation of fault detectors and congestion control algorithms. Therefore, detailed knowledge about RTTs is important for application and protocol developers. In this work we pre...

The objective of this research note is to describe an autochthonous case of CVL that occurred in the municipality of Volta R...

Higher Franz - Reidemeister Torsion

In this expository article I will discuss the theory of higher Franz-Reidemeister torsion and its application to the construction of non-trivial classes in the algebraic K-theory of elds. I will also explain how these ideas may be used to construct classes in the cohomology of the Torelli group.
